poundal second/square foot to centipoise
Please provide values below to convert poundal second/square foot [pdl·s/ft²] to centipoise [cP], or change ↔.
poundal second/square foot [pdl·s/ft²]
Definition: This unit measures viscosity in relation to the poundal (a unit of force) and square feet of surface area.
Historyandorigin: The poundal is part of the foot-pound-second system and was used in various mechanical applications in earlier physics.
CurrentUse: Rarely used today, but it can still be found in some engineering calculations for historical purposes.
funfact: The poundal second per square foot is less common, but it once served as a unit of viscosity measurement in mechanical systems!
centipoise [cP]
Definition: The centipoise is one one-hundredth of a poise and is commonly used to measure the viscosity of liquids.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the poise, it is more practical for measuring the viscosity of common fluids like water and oil.
CurrentUse: The centipoise is frequently used in industries like lubrication, cosmetics, and food science, where it is easier to work with than the larger poise unit.
funfact: Water has a viscosity of about 1 centipoise at 20°C—making it a useful baseline for viscosity measurements!
